That's why I do Extract Brews. About 4 hours for a brew day, although all grain is around the corner for a few brews.

Well, it can either be just your own views of the kits, in terms of what comes with them, ease of brew, how good the instructions are etc. For taste I guess a few external opinions would be good! <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) --> This could either be a new topic in the Kit Brewing forum for each kit, like "Review: Kit name" or a general article under kit brewing that could be added to by the general membership. The forum would be the easiest path for now, as people could add their own opinions and other kits using the same format.

The other alternative is to add a review module to the site, but as I'm still waiting on some components to complete a general upgrade to the site, this isn't a good option for now. We can start a new thread in the Kit Brewing forum to discuss this further. (getting off topic now <!-- s;) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" title="Wink" /><!-- s;) -->)

I'll be there and I will hopefully have a beer or two with me.

1. Noby (brown porter, pale ale)
2. Irish Party Ale (???)
3. TheBeerNut (nada)
4. Oblivious (brown porter)
5. Silenus (plain brown, young porter)
6. Sbillings (???)

This is all looking very porterish <!-- s:D --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D --> <!-- s:D --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D --> <!-- s:D --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D -->

I hope to be there, in my capacity as sponge and lyrical-waxer <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) -->

Crap, just realised that I had wanted to see if n1mbus would bring some bottles of my latest IPA and Porter home with him, but forgot <!-- s:( --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" title="Sad" /><!-- s:( --> Would have been great to send him in as a proxy. Who's coming to Muenster next? <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) -->
